The September Eclectic recommends
itself by a goodly table of contents. The
place Of honor is given to a collection Of
Emin Bey's letters from Central Africa,
which throw much light on the career of
this remarkable man, to whose relief
Stanley has gone. Other articles by
Frederick Harrison, Holman Hunt, Prof.
Seeley and Henrietta Brooke Davies are
extremely interesting. This number is
without doubt equal if not superior to the
majority of former issues, and well
worth the small cost of the same. The
Eclectic is published by E. r. Pelton, %
Bond street, New York, and is sold at
the low price Of As cents per copy.
ysWhy don't you buy of Russells' and
save money!
